Presidential Motorcade Game Idea

comet1440

Hey whats up I have a cool idea for a mini game or just a mod. I want to recreate a presidential motorcade in San Andreas. A full motorcade with everything, the police the 2 limos the numerous secret service suvs and etc. and as a mission I wanna play as a secret service agent riding in the motorcade protecting the president and have the motorcade come under attack and have to protect him. Or I just want to ride in a motorcade and have it escort me to where I want etc. sounds fun right? I have tried to think this out and so far I have concluded that all the vehicle models are already in the game (police car, stretch limo, and the fbi rancher could be the secret secret service trucks) however I am new to modding and I have read the all the tutorials in this forum and attempted to create this mod but it has proven to be a very daunting task so i'm sure some of you experienced and intelligent modders here can help/teach/assist me with this I would be very grateful

I wanna make it myself It's just that i'm a beginner and I don't fully understand all the technical gargle yet. can someone get me started off with some code? and is there any mod out there like this already?

The convoy with the presidents car is approaching .... get ready to shoot him while exiting the car....you find a sniperrifle ontop of the hotel roof on your right...so....MOVE UR BLOODY ASS UP THERE!!!!

ok thanks for your help, hmmm I need more help though I don't understand how to get all the vehicles to follow each other closely and how to put npcs in them and control what they do. Can someone elaborate?

hey whats up I'm currently still in the process of figuring out how to write the code for this mod but so far its too complicated/hard for me. Would any experienced modder here be willing to make this mod for me in exchange for money? I just really want to bring this mod to reality. If you are interested in this job offer pm me.

Note to mods: i'm not trying to use the forums to solicit people but this is a good place to ask what I am asking.

Reading tutorials isn't enough, like many people think. Of course you have to read them, but after that you have to try the examples. Then you have to try and create something with those codes yourself. Change some things. Experiment with it.Before asking a question, please use the "opcode search tool" in Sannybuilder. You can open it with CTRL+ALT+2 or Tools > Ide Tools > Opcode Search. This one could be found pretty easy when typing "siren"...

Read some tutorials and try to create some easy scripts like spawning an actor, arm him and make him shoot CJ in specific terms ( like in-sphere or if-CJ-shoots at him...etc.)

then try to make it abit harder:

create cars which drive to a specific point and create markers and all that stuff that could be usefull for your script

The following is something like a 'blueprint' of easy missions, which I've written when I started learning mission scripts to make it more understandeble ( I used opcodes I found in ZAZs Mission Coding tutorial for the MissionBuilder)

// then you can put any settings here like weather // spawn actor at X2 Y2 Z3 // give the weapon to the actor // and any other settings like the health and the skills of the actor // you can look for the right opcodes you need in Sannybuilder programms>IDE programms>opcode search tool

hey whats up, I've been trying to learn how to code for the past few months but I still cannot complete this mod, this is the best I have come up with, I tried to alter someone elses code and make it so that fbi ranchers spawn then come to my car and then follow me like a motorcade but it doesn't work:

But this code doesn't even work so can someone PLEASE..PLEASE help me make this mod and if you don't want to take up your time doing it I am willing to PAY YOU..just someone please help me I would be VERY appreciative, be kind, I know someone here can do it.

Just wanna say I love the idea! To take out the greatest threat to this country the socialist Barack Obama as he rides by and me hiding in the library with a decoy at the grassy knoll. That would be the most awesome patriotic mod ever!!

well after all this time I have finally made this mod. I made it using a mission maker mod. here are 2 screencaps of the motorcades I made. I made a short motorcade and I long full motorcade. my mission is not perfect and I hope someone else out there whos good with coding can make a better one someday.
